Hydrogen from eggshells, China's one-child policy, climate legislation, Brad Pitt and more
"Hydrogen from eggshells, China's one-child policy, climate legislation, Brad Pitt and more"
Climate Progress gets quoted on a diverse set of subjects. Here is ScienceNow on hydrogen:
Here is Greenwire on "Chinese bid to cast one-child policy as emissions curb raises eyebrows" (subs. reqd.) — they called me because of this recent post on China:
Joseph Romm, a former Energy Department assistant secretary and currently of the Center for American Progress, also dismissed China's claim.
"The fact that their one-child policy has reduced emissions against what they would've been is interesting," he said. "But it doesn't help the planet. What we need to do now is for them to develop without building a coal plant every week."
Romm added he didn't see the issue being taken seriously on Capitol Hill or in international talks.
"The bottom line is, 'Could a negotiated agreement cover it?'" he said. "Frankly, it's been hard enough just to get a regular climate agreement."

Lol... I do Kickboxing I don't really wanna do Judo lol ;/ but later in life I'm gonna do Jujitsu.Unfortunately that really wasn't your last sentence.
I love listening to music, writing stories and poems, skateboarding, watching skateboarding, shopping for things I like, reading, hanging out with friends and family, and being with my boyfriend. Those are hobbies and interests. Another interest of mine is getting out of high school and going to college, I can't wait.
Live life to the fullest and never stop.
Lol... I do Kickboxing I don't really wanna do Judo lol ;/ but later in life I'm gonna do Jujitsu.Unfortunately that really wasn't your last sentence.
There are so many things I enjoy doing that I honestly don't know where to start. Let's see, one of areas my passion lies in is photography. I only started getting really interested in photography sometime in 11th grade, and I only learned how to use a DSLR last year, but I'm proud to say I've made quite a bit of progress! I like anything artsy, and photography is pretty much all about art - capturing the moment, framing it well. It's good to have pictures to remind you about all the great times you went through in your life.
I'd say more, but I'd be in risk of boring all of you who are reading. ^^;;
me i play halo 2 for money and i love to fixe computers and also look at stars
92% of teens moved to rap. I am one of the 8% rebelions
besides for anime i love to play magic and D&D. also i love to skateboard and i collect alot of computer parts i love to mess and pimp my computer
I watch movies. If its a movie I'll watch it. Doesn't matter what it is. I also collect music. I know that sounds weird but I collect songs from all over the world. At the moment I have 2217 songs on my playlist alone. I collect the best movies I can find as well. If I have it then its good. Other than thats I work out soemtimes and I write. I play with Photoshop when I'm really bored. I also collect old video games. I have the entire Nintendo collection in a box somewhere. Over 700 games right there. I tend to collect alot of stuff but only when I have the money.
Alot of things interest me. Such as playing the violin (recently upgraded to a guitar). However, i wish not to bore you all with my lists. I like to try new things and anything goes. (almost) I suppose a good glass of Champaigne and basking in the moonlight now and then is up there also.
<<Yearning...to walk with the living... and out of the cold dark wasteland of eternity...>>
I love drawing and writing. I've been working on two different novels lately and I'm trying to draw pictures that go with it (It harder then I thought). I also Love playing games. Computer games, video games, and even sports. I guess that would be considered a hobby... YEP, Yep, Yeppy!!! ^_^ Oh and I almost always have a camera with me... well, I did until I broke it. LOL I use to want to be a photographer, so...

The Sea of Sunset
This is the land the sunset washes,
These are the banks of the Yellow Sea;
Where it rose, or whither it rushes,
These are the western mystery!
Night after night her purple traffic
Strews the landing with opal bales;
Merchantmen poise upon horizons,
Dip, and vanish with fairy sails.

Thanks, Sharon. I agree with you. Just wasn't too sure with my screen. Thanks again. Agnes:)))

Note to Supplement Reps
I wanted to write down a few notes aimed at helping supplement reps. I hope they are helpful.
The Big Mistake The biggest mistakes I see company reps making is not interacting with the community in an organic manner. Posting a log on a forum without social interaction is pretty much a waste of time. Simply stated, when people post in your log and you don't respond, or if you never post in the logs of others, your log will pretty much get ignored. My advice is simple...interact. A few posts a day go a long way. Start a topical thread once a week. If something is on your mind, toss it out there for discussion. Easy. The Facebook Only Approach I see companies running great info, etc., on Facebook but then not posting it on forums. If you have a sub-forum here (or anywhere), use it! If you are offering deals, let the masses know. The Anabolic Addiction Example AA was a small supplement company, but they did everything right. They had reps who mingled, ran a lot of logs, and as a result it was hard to miss them. I have AA t-shirts and supps at home. The MAB Rule This community supports companies who support us. We will provide a banner and sub-forum to any company that wants to be a part of this community.

Who is moronic enough to believe we stand a chance against Green Bay?
Posted 14 September 2011 - 02:47 PM
1. The last time Cam Newton lost a home game that counted was September 8, 2006 when Westlake HS lost at home to the eventual state champions, the Frederick Douglass Astros 25-22. That was over 5 years ago. The man feeds off the energy from the fans and that's why I hope we bring it on Sunday. Keep in mind that his best games by far this preseason were at home.
2. We lost to Arizona solely due to dumb mental errors. Talent-wise, we looked better than they did throughout the day. All of the penalties by the offensive line that killed drives are easily correctable, especially at home. The sloppy breakdowns in coverage against Doucet and King came from defenders still learning McDermott's scheme. Heck, Beason had no preseason and he was the one that blew the Jeff King touchdown by being out of position. The Peterson TD came off inexperienced punt coverage that is also very fixable. If we had played Arizona in December, we would have won by two scores easily.
3. You may have heard about how great the Green Bay secondary is, and they very well may still be, but they were just shredded by Drew Brees for 419 yards and 3 TDs. I'm not saying Cam Newton is as good as Brees yet, but the Panthers supporting cast of 89, Shockey, and Olsen is much better than what the Saints had going up against the Packers secondary. Dom Capers is a master of disguise and gameplanning, but the media that keeps hyping up Woodson and Williams seems to already have forgotten their performance last Thursday.
4. The Packers defense struggles against pass-catching tight ends. Last season, Vernon Davis shredded them for 126 yards and a touchdown. In one bad game against the Lions in the first month of the season last year, Tony Sheffler and Brandon Pettigrew combined for 14 catches for 154 yards. If Sheffler and Pettigrew could do that with Drew Stanton throwing them the ball, what's going to happen when we run Shockey and Olsen and Cam at them?
5. The Packers defense also has had weaknesses against scrambling quarterbacks. In their road opener last year, Michael Vick ran for 100+ yards against them in his coming out performance as the new Eagles starting quarterback.

Clay Matthews is going to be flying off the strong-side like a bat out of hell. I would love nothing more, however, to see Cam run him over on the corner.

Posted 14 September 2011 - 03:07 PM
But the simple fact that it puts away any doubt of us being able to beat anybody for this entire season. If we can beat Green Bay, a lot of negativity and crap perceptions about our team will dissipate.
That's priceless.

Posted 14 September 2011 - 03:13 PM
I'd probably take Green Bay 3 times if they played the Panthers 4 times this season. Since they're only scheduled to play once, who's to say this Sunday can't be that one time the Panthers take them?
I don't have to believe it "will" happen, and last time I checked, I haven't said that it "will", but only a moron would say that there is no "possible way" it can.
Posted 14 September 2011 - 03:13 PM
It's not what our offense can do, but what our defense can't do.
been saying for quite some time now that the defense is carolina's achilles.

Atheism is trivially a belief. However, atheism doesn't occupy the same special status as the zero element — it's not "at the bottom of" ∀ beliefs. Nor is it really the canvas on which other things are painted, as with a null array. BTW, {} ∉ Z. {} ⊂ Z.

RE your next boat: May I suggest a Shannon?
Thank you.
We went aboard a Shannon at a Fort Lauderdale Boat Show a couple years ago, and were very impressed with their quality.
But, from what we've found, they are rather expensive, and we didn't see any large enough to accomodate our liveaboard / chartering needs.
As much as many people can enjoy living aboard high 30 - mid 40 foot sailboats, after 11 years on a Gulfstar 50, we are really looking forward to a more spacious interior and deck space.
And, on the monetary issues, we want to be aboard a sailboat ASAP, instead of working for a couple of years to save up more hundreds of thousands of dollars, and we would rather not have a loan to pay.
So..... as much as we know there are better boats, we're sort of forced toward the Taiwanese boats, built in the 1980s, which at least offer the spaciousness we're looking forward to, and they generally have solid wood interiors which can be restored. As opposed to the veneered interiors which aren't worthy or able to be sanded and varnished to restore their interiors.
If on the other hand you know of a 50 + foot Shannon, for sale at a price well under $200K, (our upper limit is about $150K), we sure would be interested. Their interior quality clearly supports restoration, but, again, I haven't seen any 50 + footers. I am just not aware of that size Shannons existing....?
We are also focused on ketches! Are there any Shannons which are ketch rigged?
And, just to further complicate the issues, either a pilot house cockpit or center cockpit configuration is also high on our list of requirements, again, because these allow the interior space, (especially the aft cabin) to be "spacious", and they allow very good "from the cockpit" single handling of the rigging and line of sight steering, especially for a short guy like me....
All of this keeps bringing us back to the 1980s Taiwanese boats; but we sure are "open" to another brand which meets these requirements.
1. Spacious interior / pilot house or center cockpit
2. Price $150K or less
3. High quality wood work
4. Ketch rigged
5. Sweeping deck would also be welcomed, vs. those (like the Gulfstar) whose cabin tops sticks out from the deck.
Of course, we value a lot of other items like good engines with low hours with 120 HP or more, bow thruster, full keel(?), furling main / mizzen, at least 2 heads / room for a washer & dryer, stall shower, B&G equipment, auto helm, radar.... then such extravagances as forward seeing sonar, granite / marble counters :-) electric toilets, watermaker, generator, etc.
So, "shopping" for this, within our budget is challenging.

BMW Announces Unprecedented Partnership With SIRIUS Satellite Radio To Promote New 3 Series
Cross-Country 3 Series Tour - "3 ACROSS AMERICA" -To Be Chronicled by SIRIUS Satellite Radio, With a Marathon 18-Hour Broadcast to Be Aired On Special SIRIUS BMW Channel May 6th
Woodcliff Lake, NJ, March 16, 2005 – BMW of North America today announced that the company will be taking advantage of the burgeoning communications medium of satellite radio to promote its highly anticipated new 3 Series. This unprecedented partnership represents a watershed in the industry.
On March 26 th, BMW will kick off a historic grassroots 44-day cross-country tour dubbed "3 Across America" to celebrate the launch of the new 3 Series. The "3 Across America" tour will culminate on May 6th, with an 18 hour marathon broadcast which will be aired on a special SIRIUS BMW Channel. The program will consist of an entertaining and continuous "travelogue" of the entire coast-to-coast tour, including local attractions and adventures experienced on the drive, unique and eccentric stories from the road, live interviews, and vignettes. The journey will be topped off by a live concert starring top name performers.
A caravan of classic BMW 3 Series cars, new 330i Sedans, and the 3 Series' spiritual predecessor, the 2002ti — representing the breadth and heritage of the 3 Series — will depart from New York and travel across the country, ending up in Los Angeles on May 6 th, which is also the official U.S. "on-sale" date for the new 3 Series. This cross-country caravan will give people across America a sneak peek at the new 3 Series before the car arrives in dealerships.
"3 Across America" will allow BMW and 3 Series enthusiasts to participate in events at landmark destinations across the country, in cities such as San Francisco, Boston, Philadelphia, New Orleans, Dallas, Detroit, Seattle, Monterey, and many others.
SIRIUS (NASDAQ: SIRI) will record adventures and local culture experienced during the 44-day cross-country drive.
Snippets from the road will be compiled into minute-long updates to air across SIRIUS talk and entertainment channels throughout the "3 Across America" tour. Attendees of the various events across the country will have the chance to share their favorite driving stories, songs and experiences for these broadcasts. Listeners will also be treated to the sounds of local flavor from each city, which will be peppered throughout the broadcasts.
"We are thrilled to join forces with SIRIUS Satellite Radio to raise awareness of our new 3 Series, and the historic '3 Across America' caravan," said Jim McDowell, Vice President, Marketing, BMW of North America LLC. "SIRIUS listeners and BMW customers share a similar mind-set – innovative, cutting-edge, and forward-looking. Because satellite radio reaches exactly the types of audiences BMW wants to reach, we believe this is a partnership that makes perfect sense. SIRIUS will provide its listeners with a unique, fun, and memorable way of experiencing both the BMW brand and the excitement surrounding the new 3 Series."
"This event is an unprecedented integration of driving excellence from BMW with programming excellence from SIRIUS, and we are extremely proud that BMW has chosen to partner with us for the launch of the new 3 Series", said Doug Wilsterman, Senior Vice President and General Manager OEM Division for SIRIUS. "This progressive venture gives BMW and SIRIUS the opportunity to explore and leverage the latest in technology and innovation to reach out to an audience. We look forward to airing a wealth of terrific and entertaining material during "3 Across America" and on the May 6th BMW/SIRIUS broadcast."
The BMW/SIRIUS partnership represents the first time SIRIUS has participated in the launch of a new product. By partnering with SIRIUS, BMW is tapping into a market of like-minded consumers that value new technology and novel communication techniques. SIRIUS currently has over 1.24 million subscribers.
SIRIUS said it plans to roll out the effort with a distinct sense of fun — sending a producer on the road with BMW's "3 Across America" caravan. The producer will visit iconic locations in each city interviewing everyone from baseball fans in the Braves' Turner Field in Atlanta to nighttime soap fans at the site of the famous Ewing Southfork Ranch in Dallas. The resulting sound bites will be broadcast on a variety of SIRIUS channels during the "3 Across America" tour, but then will become part of the grand finale broadcast on May 6th.
BMW and SIRIUS say the 18-hour broadcast will be part cultural diary, and part entertainment happening. A first of its kind, the BMW channel on SIRIUS radio will include a simulcast of the live musical performance from the Peterson Automotive Museum in LA. that will serve as the celebration of 3 across America and the U.S. "on-sale" date of the new 3 Series, in addition to the one on one interviews with a selection of the most interesting characters encountered by the "3 Across America" team.
"We're really looking forward to the whole cross-country tour. Our goal is not just to bring the new 3 Series out to car enthusiast, but to capture the essence of their excitement and to communicate that via SIRIUS Satellite Radio", said McDowell. "What better way to celebrate a new car than to host a massive "road trip". We're thinking of this as part Kerouac, part 21st century Radio Theater. Even if you don't have a driver's license, I think you're going to have a great time listening to the BMW channel on SIRIUS May 6th."

When to Research is to Reveal: The Growing Threat to Attorney and Client Confidentiality from Online TrackingAnne KlinefelterUniversity of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill - School of Law June 18, 2012 60 Defense Law Journal 71 (2011) Virginia Journal of Law and Technology, Vol. 16, No. 1, p. 1, Spring 2011 UNC Legal Studies Research Paper No. 1799607 Abstract: Attorney-client privilege, work-product protection, and the attorney's ethical requirement to protect confidentiality of client information are at risk from commercial surveillance of online activity. Behavioral advertising, data aggregation and sale, and government access to commercially assembled profiles have been denounced as threats to privacy and confidentiality interests, but the harm to attorney and client confidentiality is of particular concern. As the legal research and broader information industries shift from print materials to services on the internet, attorneys cannot simply avoid the online environment to protect confidentiality. This article examines the risk from tracking of online legal research and draws two conclusions: 1) Lawyers must take reasonable precautions to protect confidentiality of internet-based research; and 2) Reasonable precautions are elusive due to the constant evolution of tracking technologies and practices, so attorneys should work collectively to update best practices and to evaluate and influence online industry activities so that the time-honored confidential nature of legal representation can be preserved.

Dalits and rape
Submitted by Surinder (not verified) on Fri 28th Dec 12.
Rape of dalit and tribal women in rural India is on the increase, so many cases go unreported, the victims of rape or sexual assault don't want to report their cases out of fear. In many cases the rapists are never booked by the police and the vivtim has to face further harassment. Many a times the policemen themselves indulge in sexual assault. Rape is a crime which is committed by mentally sick persons to satisfy their ego, it shows that a woman is made to suffer at the hands of the egoistic abbreated men who under a false myth consider it their right to molest a woman, harm her physically and threaten her of elimination along with her family if she reports the matter to any one. Rural women are always in danger of being raped or sexually assaulted because they are exposed in the fields while doing jobs like picking woods, something to eat or they have to go out to answer the call of nature. The psychology of a rapist is difficult to understand, most of the times he may be under the effect of alcohol or other drugs. Laws must be very strict, lest we may not become a society of rapists

Sami4u (4 April, 2010)
Hi All,
I am small time wordpress plugin developer and now currently i am out of ideas for wordpress plugin development
so the best way as far as i can see is to ask the community what they want and one by one develop it.
so here i am asking your suggestions on how to development a plugin.
Few Points for consideration.
- I may not be able to work on all plugin request at the same time. (Request will be one at time starting with simpler ones)
- No Cost will be charged for this development
- Please check the wordpress plugin center first to check if its already developed.
Note : I will also take up customization of existing wordpress plugins also.
Eagerly waiting for inputs
Sami4u (4 April, 2010)
Searching is my biggest problem if this is out there I don't know.
I would like a 468x60 like WP125 but I would like to assign what post the banner appears in.
With a code to past in the post.
That way the banner would appear only in that post and it would do the count down for me.

do u take custom job ??
Thanks for first request
Advertisement has never been my forte so need to check the plugin as well search for the stuff. I suppose i can check and customize WP125 for this purpose or write some simmilar stuff.
so to summarize as to what you want is
- a shortcode to paste on posts where you want your add to be listed.
- a time limit till which adds should be displayed.
I hope i have captured your requirements clearly.
I will get down to it.
In the mean time Please keep bombarding with more idea's

Gcc is fine; the problem are binutils, that is as and ld. As a result of the gcc problems we don't have a 64-bit userspace either so all software running on 64-bit kernels is currently old 32-bit software running in compatibility mode. Ralf |

NBA Rising Stars Challenge: What Bettors Need to Know
By Covers.com
Charles Barkley and Shaquille O'Neal have selected their rosters for the NBA Rising Stars Game set to take place Friday night and oddsmakers are siding with Team Shaq.
Handicapping these kinds of games is nearly impossible. But, if there are odds on it, we're going to be betting it. So, here's a breakdown of both sides - by position – giving the edge to either Team Chuck or Team Shaq.
Team Chuck vs. Team Shaq (-6.5, 281.5)
Shaq used three of his first four picks to solidify his backcourt, taking Damien Lillard with his first pick, Kyrie Irving with his second, and Klay Thompson with his fourth selection. Diesel also snagged Irving's teammate Dion Waiters and was assigned point man Kemba Walker, who is averaging over 17 points per game.
Barkley didn't select a guard until his fourth pick (Bradley Beal), but was able to snag Spanish sensation Ricky Rubio with his fifth pick. Brandon Knight, Isaiah Thomas and Alexey Shved round out the talent at the back end.
Edge: Team Shaq
Shaq selected Pistons C Andre Drummond as his first big and doesn't have a true power forward on his roster. The Big Aristotle decided to go small by selecting SFs Harrison Barnes, Chandler Parsons, and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist with his later picks and also has Cavaliers C Tyler Zeller to help with rebounding.
It's no surprise that Chuck's strategy consisted of grabbing the most talented forwards. Barkley wasted to time selecting former No. 1 pick Anthony Davis and beefed up his frontcourt with Kenneth Faried, Kawhi Leonard, and Tristan Thompson in the later rounds of the draft.
Edge: Team Chuck
Kyrie Irving had a game-high 34 points to lead Team Chuck to a 146-133 victory last season. Barkley's roster consisted mainly of guards and swingmen in the up-tempo glorified track meet, much like the way Team Shaq's roster is built this year. In a game where defense doesn't matter, bigs should have less of an impact.
Edge: Team Shaq
Re: NBA Rising Stars Challenge Betting News and Notes

The NBA All-Star festivities get underway tonight in Houston with the Rising Stars Challenge. Below are the lineups for both squads. Team Shaq is currently a 5.5-point favorite with a total of 281.5. The last six games in the series have produced scores of 146-133, 148-140, 140-128, 122-116, 136-109, and 155-114 (264.5 ppg avg.).
Team Shaq
Damian Lillard (Portland)
Kyrie Irving (Cleveland)
Andrew Nicholson (Orlando)
Klay Thompson (Golden State)
Harrison Barnes (Golden State)
Chandler Parsons (Houston)
Dion Waiters (Cleveland)

Sagna bemused by Van Persie, Song departures
By Football News
Captain Robin van Persie and Alex Song both left the Gunners during the summer, for Manchester United and Barcelona respectively, just a year after Cesc Fabregas, Gael Clichy and Samir Nasri had departed.
Bacary Sagna was particularly disappointed to see Song leave and admitted that, like the club's supporters, he did not always understand decisions made by the team's management.
"Everyone knew Robin was leaving," Sagna told L'Equipe. "But Alex? He's 24. He had three years on contract. I still don't understand. He's a huge loss.
"When your two best players go, you ask questions. Fans come up to you in the street and I understand their frustration. Like them, I don't understand everything."
Sagna, 29, admitted that he aspired to achieve what Nasri and Clichy had by winning the Premier League title with Manchester City last season.
"I'm the only starting player left from 2007," he said. "In May, I watched City's parade on TV. I saw Samir and Gael lift the trophy. I want that."
The France defender will enter the final year of his contract in the 2013-14 season and when asked if Arsenal had spoken to him about extending his current deal he replied: "No, nobody."

Wilderness Tripping - BWCA & Beyond | New Topic | Printer Friendly Version |
upper sacramento river
Posted by: old_user on May-28-11 10:22 PM (EST)
I recently purchased a second hand OT Discovery 169 and have been brainstorming where to paddle. Actually the brainstorming started first, now I have one the important tools. A coworker and I have been planning a multi-night canoe camping trip and like the looks of the Upper Sacramento river but haven't been able to find much information about camping along the river. We much prefer not to camp in developed campgrounds. Does anyone have experience wild camping along this river that can offer insight as to good camping areas? We're planning on tripping in October, though August (hot?!?) and early November are possible options. I've read references to camping on sandbars but wonder about the safety of doing so when there is any chance of rain.

When you say upper Sacramento, are you talking the stretch from Redding to Sacramento? If so, you may want to contact the folks at Headwaters Adventure Company (http://headwatersadventure.com/) or ESP Outdoors (http://www.espoutdoor.com/), both shops in Redding that may know. | ||

Peabody Energy Chairman and CEO Calls for Global Energy Access by 2050 as 'a Human Right'
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Peabody Energy Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Gregory H. Boyce delivered the keynote address on 'The Future of Fossil Fuels' at the Global Energy Future Symposium at Washington University in St. Louis, calling on the assembled international academic and governmental leaders to "put people first" by supporting policies that prioritize eliminating global energy poverty by 2050.
Boyce said coal is a global "future fuel," citing three global trends that will define the future of 21st Century energy: Enormous and growing global need as billions of people around the world seek greater access to energy to improve living standards; the rapid growth of fossil fuels; and the leading role of technology in driving environmental progress.
"Energy is as essential as food, shelter and clothing. It helps people live longer and better. And it is a human right, just as increasing electricity intensity is a global reality," said Boyce, who noted that fossil fuels are the only resources with the scale to meet global demand.
More efficient and clean technologies to fully utilize fossil fuels will be critical to meet global environmental goals, said Boyce.
The world will use 50 percent more energy in the next quarter century, and Boyce said coal will play an essential role in providing this power. Coal has been the fastest-growing fuel for the past decade, and coal's market share is projected to grow.
Boyce also commented on Peabody's plan to ensure full global access to electricity by 2050 by advancing clean coal technologies. He observed that replacing the existing coal-fueled fleet with efficient supercritical plants would drive major global reindustrialization and enormous emissions reductions, and carbon capture and storage would build on this progress.
ON ENERGY POVERTY: "Half the world population – 3.6 billion people – lacks adequate access to modern power. This is flatly unacceptable. The greatest crisis we confront in the 21st Century is not an environmental crisis predicted by computer models but a human crisis fully within our power to solve. Study after study – and pure common sense – tell us that access to electricity helps people live longer and better."
ON ENORMOUS GLOBAL DEMAND: "The world is not waiting for permission to pursue energy resources. The global population is multiplying and electricity use is intensifying at an unprecedented pace. At a time when energy assets easily cross continents, we cannot expect the fastest-growing economies to be satisfied with second-class access to energy."
ON THE GROWTH OF FOSSIL FUELS: "Fossil fuels represent the greatest global source of energy. They have been used for several thousand years. Suggestions that we phase fossil fuels out in years… or decades… are not serious. In fact, we will use them all. And we will do so in better and better ways."
ON COAL: "No other energy resource comes close to the power of coal. Replacing coal would take 1,800 times more solar than we have today… 2.5 million wind turbines – and constant wind… 1,150 nuclear plants… 70 tcf annually of gas – three times the production of Russia… or 2,250 large hydro plants. All of these sources are important. Yet they cannot match the scale of coal."
ON TECHNOLOGY: "Our energy systems took more than a century to build. Technology has addressed every challenge we've ever encountered, and we continue to advance with low-cost, low-carbon energy solutions from coal and other fuels."
"The world does not face a choice between more drilling or more wind. We do not face a choice between clean coal or natural gas. The world in 2030 will need it all. The good news: There are solutions to meet environmental objectives and energy needs. Those solutions are technology-based. There are many potential options, and we should explore them all, but clean coal technology provides the lowest cost, low-carbon path."
ON THE FUTURE: "We know fossil fuels – particularly coal – have the power to meet enormous energy needs. We also know technologies of all kinds are available to address environmental objectives. It is time to act. We should rebuild nuclear power; lead in oil and natural gas drilling and use; and develop more cost-efficient renewables. Most of all, we should power a global economic rebirth with clean coal."
The event was hosted by the Consortium for Clean Coal Utilization at Washington University, a center for research in advanced coal and carbon capture technologies established in December 2008. The consortium's mission is to be a resource to industry for the advancement of technologies that foster clean utilization of coal by creating an international partnership between universities, industries, foundations and government organizations.
Consortium members include: Middle East Technical University; Chulalongkorn University; China Agricultural University; Peking University; Tsinghua University; Budapest University of Technology and Economics; State University of Campinas; Technion – Israel Institute of Technology; Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya; Chinese University of Hong Kong; University of Hong Kong; Bogazici University; University of Indonesia; Indian Institute of Technology in Mumbai; Tata Institute of Social Sciences; University of Chile; Korea University; Seoul National University; Yonsei University; Jawaharlal Nehru University; Fudan University; National University of Singapore; National Taiwan University; University of Tokyo; and Utrecht University.
Washington University in St. Louis is counted among the world's leaders in teaching and research and it draws students and faculty to St. Louis from all 50 states and more than 125 nations.
Peabody Energy (NYSE: BTU) is the world's largest private-sector coal company and a global leader in clean coal solutions. With 2009 sales of 244 million tons and $6 billion in revenues, Peabody fuels 10 percent of U.S. power and 2 percent of worldwide electricity.

It's a road bike Jim, but not as we know it. The Cruzbike Silvio If there's a road bike rider out there that says he or she never gets a twinge in the neck or back or feels a little saddle sore then he or she is either telling fibs or is under the age of 20. Hardened roadies (they have to be) will tell us that it's all about proper bike fit. This is true to a point, but their point is minimizing discomfort, not eliminating it. If road bikes were truly comfortable there wouldn't be a queue at the massage tables after long rides. Yes, I know massage is partly about recovery, but what's with all the groaning and stretching? If you're a roadie riding in pain or a roadie that wants to ride faster in comfort, you can start thinking about Cruzbikes because Australian ingenuity has provided the solution with a road bike that is aerodynamically faster than a standard road bike; but with comfort. You can ride this bike as far as you like and still father children the next day...or even the same day if you have the energy...which is highly likely. At first glance the Silvio looks like a road bike. Twin 700 wheels, SIS shifters, pretty standard wheelbase, racing tyres. It's fairly obvious that something strange is going on though because the chain wheels are hung out the front. If you look closely you'll see a high pressure shock absorber in the fork tube and look even more closely and you'll notice carbon fibre beams here and there. Under the lightweight seat there's a titanium spring to absorb road shock. This is a true road bike with suspension front and back, but it's hard to see because it's cleverly engineered into the design. I'm going to digress a little here. The story of why I happen to be extensively road testing the Silvio is long and boring. It's enough to say that I lusted after this design when it was first released, but already owned a couple of recumbents. At the time I wanted a faster recumbent than the P-38, but I don't have the resources to keep buying and selling bikes on the odd chance that one may be faster. I've bought a few and been badly disappointed. The Silvio caught my eye because it's designed from the ground up to be an alternative to a standard diamond frame (DF) road bike. The MBBFWD, or moving bottom bracket front wheel drive design eliminates most of the problems that recumbents have. These are the problems that owners and manufacturers either don't know about or don't want to know about. The Silvio eliminates basic problems in recumbent design The first problem with recumbents and one that roadies notice first, is that too many are poor climbers. Recumbent owners can be a bit obsessive about their speed down hill or on the flat, but put to the test, the majority will get dropped by any half way decent diamond frame road bike on a decent climb - something with a gradient in excess of 6%. The Silvio is one of the very few recumbent designs that climbs to the ability of the rider. The technical reasons are the triangulated chain stays, the lack of any idlers and the stiff fairly upright seat. There is no power sucking flex in the Silvio design. The Silvio rates among the top climbing recumbents. The second problem with many recumbents is non standard wheel sizes. Most have different front and rear wheel sizes. That means you carry two tube sizes and can't borrow one off the guy next to you if you get more than one puncture. Many recumbents have small driven wheels. This means that standard bike gearing is too low and you either need massive chainwheels with all the attendant problems of derailleur cage limits or you have to fit a geared hub and lose 2-4% in transmission losses (which is added to the 1% or so sucked up by the power idler and sometimes another few percent by a soft mesh seat.) On most recumbents a change in rider means a change in chain length and crank tube extension. This can't be done instantly and requires tools or quicklinks in the chain. The Silvio design adjusts to different height riders quickly and the only tool required is an Allen key to slacken and tighten the pivot points in the front frame. Rear wheel drive recumbents require about three standard lengths of chain. At todays retail prices for good chains that can be $300. The Silvio has none of these problems. The rider sits at a similar head height to a DF, using bog standard bike gearing into bog standard 700c wheels. Although not as aero as some radical recumbent designs the Silvio still has an advantage over DF riders 'on the hoods.' By my calculation it will take a mini paceline of at least three drafting road bike riders to neutralize the Silvio advantage... and of course a Silvio can draft too....! To quote Kim Tolhurst ,(Geelong Advertiser 2010) http://www.cruzbiking.com.au/GT275 "The FWD retains the triangular drivehouse but doesn't have the very long chain to the back that recumbents do, and that vision, while slightly lower, is still at a height where people expect to see a cyclist amongst traffic. Plus the head is balanced in almost the same posture as driving a car. It's totally natural way to see the road ahead and allow you to comfortably and safely talk to a fellow cyclist." There are no perfect bikes, so what are the disadvantages of the MBBFWD? The most talked about and probably least important is the learning curve. Since Cruzbike have posted instructional videos on their web site, anyone can learn to ride these designs in a few minutes. My first experience with MBB a few years back was without tuition and I found it frustrating. Recently I was shown how to ride the Silvio and got on it and rode off immediately. Riding a MBB design is different. It's no good pretending it isn't - but you forget the unconventional transmission during a short ride. The Silvio as I rode it weighed around 12 kg. This is slightly lighter than my P-38 but obviously heavier than the latest featherweight DFs. I don't know how lightly the bike can be built up but an educated guess is a little under 11 kg. That would require extensive study at the Weight Weeny web site and some spare dollars. The Silvio eliminates medical problems caused by road bikes. ED or erectile dysfunction is common in cyclists and more common in amateur and overweight cylists. There are numerous studies and articles discussing ED. Neck and back pain are common in cyclists in spite of the common statement that it's all due to poor bike fit. It's still common! The Silvio doesn't cause ED, neck or back pain. So what's the Silvio like to ride? Fast and comfortable. It's fast because it's aerodynamic and it's transmission is the same as a standard road bike. . It's comfortable because of the very elegant engineering. The rear horizontal stays are carbon fibre beams which flex to absorb road shock. The design eliminates sideways flex while allowing the rear wheel to ride over bumps. Under the top seat mount is a strong titanium plate spring. This isolates the rider from the rear triangle movement. At the front, the carbon fibre beams are repeated and the front fork is a mono shock. This is unique and very effective. You won't get numb hands or wrists, even on the roughest chipseal. There will be no saddle pain 'cos there's no saddle! The swiveling front end is disconcerting to start with because the chainwheels want to swing around make love to your leg when you get off, but you quickly learn to stand behind the handlebars and keep the steering under control. The Silvio is easier to mount and dismount than any other bike I've owned or ridden. You can pretty much walk forward over the seat and sit down. For older riders with possible hip problems it's just one more advantage. Conclusion I love this bike for the elegant frame design, the sophisticated suspension and the efficiency. Unlike a DF or conventional RWD recumbent the design gives some upper body exercise. The Silvio is a true alternative to diamond frame road bikes. (Disclaimer - I have no connection with Cruzbike in any way. I am not employed by them and have not received payment for this review.)
I haven't tried the Cruzbike, I haven't tried the Cruzbike, but it's high time I bought one and donate a car to charity. I got tired of driving to work every day and seeing my belly starting to look like a huge doughnut. I was a bit scared of cramps, though, due to the fact that I'm almost 30...
Should Have Trusted My Instincts I have bought two different recumbents since the first time I toyed with the idea of getting a Silvio. In fact, before buying my last recumbent (Toxy ZR), I read PaulW's excellent and thorough post above and had myself convinced that, dammit, I'm doing it this time; I'm buying a Silvio. I spent countless evenings on the internet reading everything I could, watched every video and looked at every picture available. I also spoke to Nanda several times at Spin Cyclz about the bike. I am sad to say that, each time, I ultimately let the negative online reviews/comments and the documented greater learning curve steer me in a different direction than my heart was telling me I needed to go. It is important to note however that there were far more positive comments on the Silvio (or Cruzbike in general) than there were negative...I just gave more weight to the negative than I should have. Months ago I placed my order for the Toxy and it was well into production (custom paint, etc.) when I found out I was going to need back surgery. I would have never bought the Toxy if I knew my back was going to go south on me again but I had no indications at the time that I was going to have to go under the knife (this was not my first time...I had back surgery in 2009 as well). Out of the blue, 2 weeks before my May 31st operation, I received an email from someone who was aware of my Toxy and who was interested in buying it. I did not have it on the market and wasn't really thinking that much about selling it so the email definitely came as a big surprise. A few back-and-forth conversations, pictures taken and sent, etc. and I was able to sell my Toxy. My fear was that after another back surgery the Toxy may be just too low for me so to be able to recoup the majority of my purchase price and to sell the bike to someone who could get immediate use and enjoyment out of it seemed like a huge win-win. So, here I am again...at the same point I was about 6 months ago. The difference is I am not going to let the negative override my intuition this time. Further, I think the Silvio might just be the ideal bike over most other choices for someone with back problems. And, as a bonus, the Silvio 2.0 was just released so maybe having waited all this time might turn out to be a big silver lining in an otherwise very tortured route to get to this point.
Back problems and the silvio 2.0 Bent, I realize back problems are a horrible thing to deal with and can take you off bikes. I have had two lower back surgeries and now had my hopefully last and 4th neck surgery. If I had been on a recumbent years ago maybe I would only have one or two neck surgeries under my belt to date. The silvio has been the god. Send to my continue king my biking. The relaxed 27 degree seat with built in head rest has gotten rid of my issues riding a bike. The negative is just crap, find someone on the forum close to you that is willing to let you test ride their bike, you will be as I quote many on on the forum to me, you will be pleasantly surprised by the ride and maneuverability of the silvio. I can turn around on my neighborhood street easy, can sprint fast climb hills as fast as an upright and faster. The bike is a pure joy to ride. Not only a joy, it is an engineering art in design. Good luck healed neck, no more Brokeneck here, james

http://www.math.ucdavis.edu/~suh/metacognition.pdf I am really surprised how we aren't exhibiting the "above average" effect that badly, if at all. It seems the most common answer is "I am pretty bad", or "I am better than my friends, but still quite bad in the scheme of things." While others say "I am quite good". Only a few go "I am about average" or "above average", which statistically should exist. These answers by their nature imply a sort of awareness to comparisons. That while they don't give an accurate measure of skill, it shows they can accurately figure out their ability if given good data. Does this mean that league players are better at self-identifying then players of other games? I wonder why this game helps players do that. If so, this is both extremely interesting, and extremely awesome. Because for once we might have something that says "Hey, league players are superior to other game players in this regard: they aren't wrapped up in ego trips or illusions." --- I don't always Sublime Archangle and Silverblade Paladin, but when I do, I win on the fourth turn. | |

Welcome to my neighborhood
Note added 3.19.2001: Due to technical difficulties, this site has been off the web for almost three months. However, the difficulties are now overcome and my site is now back on the web. I apologize to all those who looked for my pages over the last few months, and I look forward to adding more pages for everybody to enjoy over the coming months and years. Thank you for your visit, and please remember to send me an e-mail if you enjoy taking my virtual tours! -- Stuart Brorson
I live in Washington Heights -- upper Manhattan -- in an Art Deco building at the end of Fort Washington Avenue. My immediate neighborhood is traditionally called Fort Tryon, after the park which lies at its upper end. Fort Tryon was developed largely at the end of the 1930s. Prior to that time, the area was the site of large estates owned by wealthy people. When the estate owners left or died, real estate developers bought the land and built large, well appointed luxury apartment buildings on the sites of the former estates. Many of the buildings were built in the then prevelant Art Deco style, thereby creating a certain stylistic uniformity which harmonizes the area. Many of these apartment buildings are now co-ops. Recently, real estate agents have taken to calling the area "Hudson Heights" on the theory that "rebranding" the neighborhood with a posh sounding name will help drive up co-op prices.
With or without the renaming, I think that my neighborhood is one of Manhattan's finest and most interesting places to live. The area is quiet, safe, calm, and beautiful, and yet offers city conveniences like easy access to shops. Moreover, the entirety of Washington Heights is full of interesting little nooks and crannies which remain largely undiscovered by the folks who think Manhattan ends at 96th street. On the other hand, when you want big-city life, midtown is only 15 minutes away on the express A train. Indeed, as you will see in these pictures, My neighborhood is a charming oasis of trees, parks, and Hudson river views located right on Manhattan island -- a place usually associated with restless activity and hustle, and not beauty and serenity.
Please enjoy this photo tour of my neighborhood, and check back now and then as I add more photos and sections.
